I always knew that I liked you, @Eric.
Thank you for helping me visualize the “why” and the “how” behind this. I see the most pronounced increase in my basal needs due to eating on my sedentary work days. Although being at a desk most of the week is a pain in the neck from a health and blood sugar perspective, it does provide me with the opportunity to see this eating effect on basal needs (as well as hormone effects) in an exaggerated, controlled, repetitive environment. I hope that these observations not only help me with my understanding of best treatment strategies, but that they might help other FUDders, too.
